A wild, disobedient boy leaves his home near Chicago at the age of 14, believing he can do it all, alone. But everything he tries, goes bad. What will it take for Doug to get his life turned around? One word: prison. Because of his decision to break the law, he is convicted, and faces 13¿ to 27 years in a federal penitentiary. He believes a person is innocent until proven guilty, he thinks he's not guilty enough to serve such hard time, he really hopes he will get his freedom back. But he's wrong. This is the end of the road for him, as he "dances with the devil, on the other side of freedom".
